A:variables because a variable is a symbol for a number you don’t know yet
Pedro made mistake in step 3.
He supposed to plug in y = 12 into the y in the equation to solve for x
Should be:
-14x - 2(2)=24
-14x - 4 = 24
-14x = 28
x = -2
Answer:
No.
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution x = 0 means that the value 0 satisfies the equation, so there is a solution. “No solution” means that there is no value, not even 0, which would satisfy the equation.
Answer:
600 ml of pure water.
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine how much pure water the pharmacist should add to a 600ml solution with 30% active ingredient, so that this solution becomes 15%, the following calculation must be performed:
600 x 0.3 = 180
15 = 180
100 = X
100 x 180/15 = X
18,000 / 15 = X
1,200 = X
1,200 - 600 = 600
Thus, 600 ml of pure water should be added to achieve a 15% solution.
